I wonder why there are never any conversations after these types of issues detailing to young black men between the ages of 13-30 the value of good decision making.
Sometimes if seem we don’t really care about their death of our own people unless there is case where there might be away for us to benefit financially.

This is What happens when you are guilty of something. Why must people continue to resist the police. Actions has consequences

That’s crazy, state of Georgia don’t protect officers from shooting into moving vehicles. Bet they still get off.

[@InvestBuildEmpower]

We know their history. Stay away!! For the life of me I dont understand ending people for eluding unless someones life is in danger. These people will end you if you take a honey bun and run away!

[@ccccc808]

You have to check.cobb county police im a native they were under investigation years ago for misconduct but never heard about it again...cobb county is a very racist polce department

[@binonino7926]

This person had to be black.To be killed for eluding he had to be.How can you kill someone for running.Was thier any civilians injured?

[@seeemsee]

Yeah right... Just like so many black people who are in jail or prison instead of being shot. Stop pretending that black people are victims. Whoever the driver of the truck with stolen tags was, he or she RAMMED civilian vehicles and police vehicles. That is considered a deadly weapon. Criminals need to stop being criminals.

​He wasn't going anywhere in a box truck, lame ass excuse to riddle a black man with bullets! There are many more dead! if he was white it would of been a standoff until they took him into custody. You're white.. remember history clearly displayed black Americans are victims @@seeemsee
